Do I really have a thing for female voice actors?

But then I thought, they'd been alone in the music room for so long, they might have already rehearsed their stories.

Thinking about this, Tachibana Rin felt somewhat agitated.

Stealing glances at Tazaki Toru's handsome face as he ate pizza only fueled her anger.

"You're not allowed to eat anymore!"

Miss Tachibana could only rage in vain.

Tazaki Toru wiped his mouth and turned to look at the girl beside him, his gaze sweeping over her face.

"Hey, why are you looking at me like that?"

Tachibana Rin suddenly felt a little guilty under his gaze.

"Can not watch?"

"Don't look!"

The girl displayed an unreasonable attitude.

Tazaki Toru asked curiously, "Could it be that I unknowingly did something to upset you today?"

When have you ever done anything to make me happy?

"When I went back to Osaka and was forced into blind dates, you didn't come to my rescue, you big liar!"

Tazaki Toru raised an eyebrow in surprise: "Ms. Tachibana went on a blind date?"

He thought that, given Tachibana Rin's personality, she would never obediently listen to her parents.

As a result, Tazaki Toru's smile became even more gentle.

Rin Tachibana seemed to be annoyed by Toru Tazaki's smile.

Are you happy that I went on a blind date?

Miss Tachibana pursed her lips in grievance, as if tears were about to fall uncontrollably at any moment.

Tazaki Toru shook his head: "I just think that although Tachibana is tough on the outside, she is a very filial girl."

"I feel somewhat at ease now."

Rin Tachibana's expression softened slightly; at least he still had some conscience.

"Then... I'll ask you a question, and you must answer me truthfully."

"I'll speak my mind." Tazaki Toru nodded.

After composing herself, Tachibana Rin thought for a long time before finally uttering a soft, gentle voice.

The sound was so faint that even Toru Tazaki, who is known for his excellent hearing, couldn't hear it immediately.

Seeing that Tazaki Toru remained blankly unmoved, Tachibana Rin bit her lip and had no choice but to raise her voice. Her face flushed, she asked again.

"In MyGO, which girl do you care about the most?"

438. Once Rin gets excited, she becomes oblivious.

After asking the question, before Tazaki Toru could answer, Tachibana Rin regretted it.

I suddenly realized that I was a troublesome girl, always asking these troublesome questions.

On the contrary, he is a master of balancing things, and he will definitely say something boring like "I care about all of you".

However, Toru Tazaki's reaction was different from what Rin Tachibana had imagined.

"The most caring thing?"

"The most sincere!"

Rin Tachibana nodded emphatically, pronouncing the word "most" with particular emphasis.

Tazaki Toru fell into thought, and after a long while, he blurted out, "If I had to say who I care about the most, it would probably be Miss Hitomi."

"...Huh?"

Rin Tachibana was startled, then stared blankly at Toru Tazaki beside her.

She had considered the possibility of Mika Kohinata, and also thought it might be Hina Aoki; perhaps she herself had a chance.

No, how did it become Yang Gongfei Na?

When did you become so close to that lead singer?

"In terms of ability, as the lead singer, Ms. Yang Gong should naturally bear more scrutiny and also receive more expectations."

"She hasn't fully developed the qualities required of a qualified band lead singer yet, so I'll naturally pay more attention to her in every aspect."

Tazaki Toru analyzed it carefully.

Rin Tachibana was a little angry.

Who's talking to you about this kind of thing?!

The "care" that Tachibana Rin mentioned is not the same "care" that Tazaki Toru is talking about.

"I feel like you're deliberately making fun of me." The girl's face gradually darkened.

"Could it be that I misunderstood what Ms. Tachibana meant?" Tazaki Toru stared intently at Tachibana Rin, the doubt in his eyes causing Tachibana Rin to stammer for a while.

But now that the question has been asked, there's no reason to back down.

The girl gritted her teeth and said defiantly, "What I mean is, among all of us, who do you care about the most?"

"I care most about Miss Yanggong, but I still can't completely trust her."

"Leaving aside her singing skills, I heard from Mr. Fujita that she still has a slight problem of forgetting lyrics. I am very worried about whether she can control her nervousness when she goes on stage."

Hey!

You're really going to have a run for your money with Rin-nee?!

Clearly, Tazaki Toru answered both of Tachibana Rin's questions from his perspective as a composer.

A neutral response regarding their performance within the band.

This answer might be fair enough, but it's not what Tachibana Rin wanted.

She wanted to hear a more self-serving reply from Tazaki Toru.

The more thoughtful Tazaki Toru appeared, the more displeased Tachibana Rin became, always feeling that Tazaki Toru was deliberately causing her trouble.

"So tell me, who is your favorite character in MyGO?"

Tonight, Ms. Tachibana has indeed been somewhat provoked. Her already capricious nature has become even more domineering and agitated than usual.

This might be due to the influence of Hinami, or perhaps because she stumbled upon Toru Tazaki and Mika Kohinata's date.

In short, a mix of emotions was swirling within her, making her desperately need a response from Tazaki Toru, so she decided to speak her mind.

She is not like Hina Aoki; she is adept at disguise and manipulation.

Once she feels confused or hesitant, she will inevitably seek reassurance from elsewhere.

This is the personality of Tachibana Rin: extremely troublesome and unique.

Tazaki Toru hesitated to answer, his confused gaze shifting back and forth between Tachibana Rin: "What does 'like' mean, Ms. Tachibana..."

When faced with the gaze from Tazaki Toru, Tachibana Rin's breath hitched. Her originally fierce and intimidating eyes suddenly went silent the moment they met Tazaki Toru's gaze.

"No...no, it's not that kind of liking! It's lewd! I mean the kind related to the nature of my work..."

Rin Tachibana racked her brains, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "I admire it!"

"Yes! It's about appreciating!"

Rin couldn't bear it in the end, fearing that he would discover her ill intentions.

At the same time, she was also a little scared, afraid that he would say an answer she didn't want to hear, because if he did, she would definitely have trouble sleeping tonight.

Tazaki Toru nodded, seemingly agreeing with Tachibana Rin's phrasing of the question, and thought for a moment:

"If Ms. Tachibana had asked me this last year, I would most likely have answered Ms. Hinana."

"As you know, Ms. Hinata and I are very compatible in music. I love both her singing and piano playing."

Tsk! Oshima Haruna, you've given me another good time.

Rin Tachibana thought to herself, feeling rather sullen.

It's one thing for her to be willing to share Toru Tazaki with Hina Aoki, but it's quite another for her to feel jealous when Toru Tazaki praises Hina Aoki.

Rin Tachibana, this girl, always has unique insights in these very peculiar places.

"But now, I seem to have a different answer to this question."

"Hmph! What a fickle guy!" Tachibana Rin couldn't help but mutter, while also glaring fiercely at Tazaki Toru.

Tazaki Toru smiled and looked into the girl's beautiful, uncertain, and insecure eyes.

The voice was as gentle and soothing as ever. When it entered her ears, it was like the soft moonlight solidifying, gradually eroding her senses.

"Right now, it's Ms. Tachibana."

"...Huh?"

Rin Tachibana's eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at the man beside her.

The whites of his eyes were covered with dense blood vessels, and his pupils swayed back and forth, making him look particularly frightening.

"Why?"

"I think it's because I've seen what the original Tachibana was like. The current Tachibana is completely different from when she first joined the project."

"It's not that I think you were terrible in the past, but I'm genuinely moved by Tachibana's transformation."

"Not only me, but I imagine that even if Ms. Hina doesn't say it, she must be very surprised and gratified."

"And I recently heard Mr. Fujita say that Ms. Tachibana plays the piano just as well as Ms. Hina, and even makes far fewer mistakes than her."

"This is proof of the effort put in."

"As for me, I have always admired and admired hardworking people like Ms. Tachibana."

Rin Tachibana's face had turned red without her realizing it. In her memory, although Toru Tazaki had praised her before, this was the first time she had ever been praised to this extent.
